- Going on a motorcycle road trip? Looking for a guide to a motorcycle road trip? Want to know the essentials for your motorcycle road trips?
This video has Michael explaining what is needed for your motorcycle road trips, including the 2 different packing styles. We ride our Triumph Street Triple and Triumph Street Triple R for 7 hours from Vancouver along Highway 3 into Penticton, BC.
Must haves on a trip:

mans straight up did a shot of his gf shirtless
you look like strait from the 80s
Not anymore. But yeah, that’s what I was going for. Thanks hahaha
Yea definitely 80's kinda reminds me of the character bart taylor on the movie "rad".
Amazing trip with even more amazing people!
"DO IT!"
My girlfriend and I rode from St Petersburg to Barcelona. We both rode our favorite bikes and my god one of the best experiences ever. We did the whole trip in two days.
Wow! Jealous!
if your buddy likes backpacks, me too, use 2 backpacks. Strap one to the rear seat and wear the other. When he wants a rest from the weight of the pack he is wearing he can lean back and the pack he is wearing can rest on the backpack that is strapped to the seat. Best of both worlds. If you only need 1 pack just strap it to the rear seat. I use a bungie net, fast easy and it all goes with me.
Oh that’s clever! Good idea. Thanks!
Nice Video fantastic area to ride. Like the way you edit. I love motorcycle trips nothin like it. I do take less stuff now than I did on my first trips. keep up the great content.
That triumph street triple ♥️
Great trip !
Motogeo said the Same thing about the bugs in Canada :D
How did your passenger sit comfortable with saddlebags in the way?
The passenger sits with their feet on foot pegs, and their legs are bent. The side saddle bags sit under their legs and not affecting their seating position at all.
Good question.
I noticed the gas prices changing at the gas stop. 1.12 per litre compared to 2.40 cents there now, crazy eh
With reference to your mate struggling with the weight of his rucksack on his shoulders , that's simple tell him to buy a Kriega .
They are amazing . You don't feel any weight at all , it's all transferred through the quad lock system
Simple but brilliant , highly recommended 👍🏻
Oh I've heard of that! Good to know! Thanks for the recommendation.
DownieLive ive got theses kriega bags mounted on my street triple r 2014 and the 15 ltr backpack. there great bags for these bikes almost made for them. i did a video with them mounted. albeit no as good as this one, just something i threw together but you can see how big they are and how they fit.
Oh that’s awesome! Thanks very much! Yeah, you’re not the first person to recommend them.
Ross, this great info.
She likely won’t be learning to ride anytime soon, but we may get there eventually...
Cool video but you didn’t really talk about essentials for a trip. A title like this you would expect more about the type of gear. For example, did you take rain gear, what do you have for tools, flairs, do you have rider to rider communication if so, what did you use? This seems to be more just a road trip video with the basic obvious gear. Entertaining but looses the “essentials” part.
Your friends look so small infront of you.
How tall are you?
👍
I'll be doing 1,500 km on June with my brother. :)
"Do it"
YES!!!! DO IT!!!!
I'm planning to do a road trip with my brother using a Yamaha R3.
What are your suggestions?
The trip will be 1755km in a span of 4 days (351km a day)
My biggest suggestion is keep as much weight off your back/arms. Either get a tank bag to put your heavy items into, or saddle bag, but, you’re really not going too far each day. You’ll only be riding for 3-4 hrs a day, and can easily split that up with stops to rest if you need to.
Pack light and enjoy!
No way I’d ride a road trip with a passenger
No way I'd ride one without. Takes all kinds of people to make a world hey.
Awesome video!
I love your hair man :D
Great video, and great country. From flat Denmark:-)
Just do it 😂
Where do you get you're biking gear, like the jacket?
I go to a local store in Vancouver so I can try on gear. Having it fit you correctly is important. I recommend you go check out a local motorcycle store in your city.
surprisingly this haircut suit you fucking good lol
😆👍🏼😄
No essentials mentioned... 🤷♂️🤷♂️
That an Airflite?
Nope. Icon something
where are you from?

So what essentials do you recommend 😂
Anti-Monkey Butt

Jealous
am I the only one expecting more riding footage, less talking? Still awesome video, just little disapointed xd
Sorry. Maybe my new videos are more your style
Like I said, still awesome video :D
Most of us don't really have courage to do something like that :D
Oh. Thanks for noticing and commenting then Mihajlo
